Cant Rail for Closeboard Fencing

This 75mm x 48mm Cant Rail is a key structural component for building strong, long-lasting closeboard fencing. Designed to provide horizontal support for featheredge boards, this cant rail is ideal for domestic and commercial fencing projects.

Made from softwood timber and left with a rough sawn finish, the angled top edge helps shed water, reducing moisture retention and extending the life of your fence. It is pressure treated to protect against rot and insect attack, ensuring long-term resistance in outdoor environments.

Commonly installed between fence posts in closeboard systems, cant rails provide the support needed to fix featheredge boards securely. Use two or three per bay depending on the height of your fence, with the angled profile facing up to deflect rainwater.
